What is the complementary angle of 73.2 degrees? Here we will define the complementary angle of 73.2 degrees, show you how to calculate the complementary angle of 73.2 degrees, and even illustrate the complementary angle of 73.2 degrees (73.2°) so you have a solid understanding of what it means.
The complementary angle of 73.2 degrees, also known as the complement angle of 73.2 degrees, is the angle that when added to 73.2 results in a sum of 90. Therefore, to calculate the complement angle of 73.2 degrees, we subtract 73.2 from 90. Here is the formula, the math, and the answer:
90 - angle = complement angle
90 - 73.2 = 16.8
16.8 degrees
73.2 degrees plus the complementary angle of 16.8 degrees equals 90 degrees, which means that together they will make an L-shaped 90-degree angle.
The illustration below shows 73.2 degrees colored in red and the complementary angle of 73.2 degrees, which is 16.8 degrees, colored in green.
As you can see from the illustration above, 73.2 degrees and 16.8 degrees form an L-shaped angle together. This proves that the two angles, 73.2 degrees and 16.8 degrees, are complementary angles.
